Warriors at Spurs odds, lines, picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 113, Spurs 102
Money line
PASS on the money line as a single bet. The price isn’t worth the wager on the Warriors (-280). The Warriors are 20-19 on the road this season while the Spurs are only 16-24 at home.
With no Murray tonight for the Spurs, they will not have the firepower to keep up with the Warriors, even with Curry and Thompson out. G Jordan Poole has scored 19 or more points in 18 straight games, averaging 25.9 points per game in that stretch.

Against the spread
The Warriors are 4-0 ATS in their last four games and 5-5 ATS in their last 10. Eight of their last nine victories have been by double digits.
The Spurs have covered the spread in their last five games and are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 contests. However, this shouldn’t be that close with four Spurs starters out tonight and the Warriors battling for third place.
Take the WARRIORS -6.5 (-110).
Over/Under
The Warriors’ win over the Lakers Thursday finished with 240 total points, but their previous four didn’t go any higher than 218. They are 18-20-1 O/U on the road this season and have averaged 106.8 points in their last 11 games.
Two of the three matchups this season between the two teams stayed under 220 total points and one went for 244.
Without four Spurs starters out and no Curry or Thompson for the Warriors, I’m going with UNDER 223.5 (-112).
